Well most of us at some stage in our lives will have a brush with the
|
||
|
|
law, so here's some interesting truths about the law in VIC, OZ. Most of this
|
||
|
|
stuff applies all throughout OZ though. I'll throw in some general law trivia
|
||
|
|
as well, just in case you're curious :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* If you are under 18 and you sign some sort of contract, it is NOT
|
||
|
|
legally binding. This means that if you're 16 and you sign a contract
|
||
|
|
agreeing to pay off a computer over some time limit, you can take the
|
||
|
|
computer, tell the dude you're not going to pay him shit, and there
|
||
|
|
isn't a damn thing he can do about it. The onlt times you have to stick
|
||
|
|
to a contract is if you are buying stuff to live on ( food, clothing,
|
||
|
|
etc.), or if you borrow money from banks, building society, etc., also
|
||
|
|
if the contract helps with employment or education.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* When you are 17 you can leave home. If you leave home before you are
|
||
|
|
17, your parents can call the Department of Health & Community services
|
||
|
|
and get them to find you and bring you home, or take you to court. If
|
||
|
|
there is bad shit going on at home though, they probably won't force
|
||
|
|
you to go back.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* BEING TAKEN TO COURT:
|
||
|
|
By the police- You can be taken to a court for
|
||
|
|
committing a crime once you are over 10. If you are under 17 you will
|
||
|
|
be taken to the children's court.
|
||
|
|
By someone else- You can be sued by someone if
|
||
|
|
you have hurt them or caused them to lose money. But you will only be
|
||
|
|
responsible for the damage or loss if at your age you should have
|
||
|
|
known what the results would be.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* POLICE QUESTIONING (the pigs lie about your rights!):
|
||
|
|
- If you are under 17, the police should not question you
|
||
|
|
without a friend, relative, or independent person being
|
||
|
|
present.
|
||
|
|
- You DO NOT have to give your name or address to the police.
|
||
|
|
- You do not have to give your name or address on public
|
||
|
|
transport if asked by the cops or gumbies.
|
||
|
|
- You do not have to give your name and address if you are
|
||
|
|
driving a car/bike or if you are on licensed premises.
|
||
|
|
- You don't have to go with the police unless you're under
|
||
|
|
arrest. Always ask them 'Am I under arrest?'.
|
||
|
|
- You don't have to give your fingerprints or blood samples
|
||
|
|
unless a court orders it.
|
||
|
|
- You don't have to have your photo taken, or be in a line-up.
|
||
|
|
- You don't have to answer any questions. Just say "no comment"
|
||
|
|
or something equally corny :)
|
||
|
|
- Anything you say at ANYTIME can be used against you, even if
|
||
|
|
it is so-called "off the books".
|
||
|
|
- You don't ahve to sign anything unless you agree with it.
|
||
|
|
HINTS: If you are being interviewed or busted or anything, try
|
||
|
|
and piss the cops RIGHT off. Say shit like- "Don't you ever
|
||
|
|
wonder what your dog and your wife get up to while your away
|
||
|
|
playing cops and robbers?", if you get them so pissed off that
|
||
|
|
they will hopefully hit you, all charges will be dropped
|
||
|
|
against you as it will be an "improper arrest", and you can then
|
||
|
|
sue the ass of the cops who busted you. When getting hassled by
|
||
|
|
cops in VIC, they will almost always for your address, name and
|
||
|
|
phone number, even if you haven't done anything. Try this ploy
|
||
|
|
it can be really funny:
|
||
|
|
PIG- "So you say you know nothing about the explosion in the
|
||
|
|
area?"
|
||
|
|
YOU- "That's what I said"
|
||
|
|
PIG- "Do you have any I.D. on you?" (notice how they will always
|
||
|
|
ASK you for it, they can't demand)
|
||
|
|
YOU (playing dumb)- "Why? I haven't done anything wrong. Do I
|
||
|
|
have to give you my details?"
|
||
|
|
PIG- "It's just routine procedure. If you don't tell me your
|
||
|
|
I.D. I'll take you down to the station."
|
||
|
|
YOU- "Your full of shit, you have to officially arrest me first
|
||
|
|
which you won't do as you will get into deep shit for making a
|
||
|
|
false arrest. What's YOUR name and details? I'm going to report
|
||
|
|
you to the IID and the deputy Ombudsman."
|
||
|
|
PIG- "duhhh..." watch his face drop like a brick.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
BTW the phone number for IID (Internal Investigations Department) is
|
||
|
|
03-418-1888 (24 hour) DOB-A-COP :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* SEX: heheh thought i better put this in ;)
|
||
|
|
- No one is allowed to have sex with you if you are under 10
|
||
|
|
- If you are between 10 and 16 a person is not allowed to have
|
||
|
|
sex with you if they are more then two years older (yes
|
||
|
|
Psychosis, that does mean that having sex with your mum is
|
||
|
|
against the law. BTW Psychosis is a Fed Informer AND a lamer,
|
||
|
|
so he deserves it :)
|
||
|
|
- If you are aged 16 or 17 a person is not allowed to have sex
|
||
|
|
with you if you are under their care, supervision or authority.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* GETTING MARRIED: (why bother?)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You can marry once you turn 18. If you are 16 or 17 you can
|
||
|
|
only get married if:
|
||
|
|
- your parents agree, and
|
||
|
|
- your boyfriend or girlfriend is at least 18, and
|
||
|
|
- a Magistrate or Judge is satisfied that there are
|
||
|
|
special circumstances.
|
||
|
|
- You can not get married if you are under 16.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* DRINKING ALCOHOL: hehehe
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Until you are 18 you can only drink or buy alcohol if:
|
||
|
|
- you are at your own or someone else's house; or
|
||
|
|
- you are in a hotel or restaurant and you are having
|
||
|
|
a meal with your parents.
|
||
|
|
- No one is allowed to let you have alcohol unless it is one of
|
||
|
|
these two situations. Police can take alcohol away from a
|
||
|
|
person if they "believe" they are under 18 and not in one of
|
||
|
|
these situations.
|
||
|
|
- You cannot go into licensed premises unless you are with your
|
||
|
|
parents or guardian for a meal. If you break the law the police
|
||
|
|
could charge you and you could go to court.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* DRUGS: hahaha
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- No matter how old you are it is a crime to have or take drugs
|
||
|
|
that are illegal unless they have been prescribed (DOH! :)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* TATTOOS: wierd huh?
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Until you are 18 you are not allowed to be tattooed (so all
|
||
|
|
you kiddies will have to wait until your 18th before you can
|
||
|
|
have "=MAIM=" tattooed on your forehead :-)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* BUYING CIGARETTES: to use as fuse delays ;)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Until you are 18 no-one can sell or give you tobacco.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
* CARRYING A WEAPON: the interesting bit...
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- You can only have or buy a gun once you are 18, and you must
|
||
|
|
have a permit for it.
|
||
|
|
- If you are over 12 and under 18 you are allowed to carry a
|
||
|
|
gun (but not a pistol) if you have written permission from the
|
||
|
|
police. This is called a permit. You will only be given a
|
||
|
|
permit if:
|
||
|
|
- your parents agree; and
|
||
|
|
- you are a responsible person (yeah right)
|
||
|
|
- You will only be allowed to use this gun with a permit if you
|
||
|
|
are with a person over 18 years of age who has a shooters
|
||
|
|
permit.
|
||
|
|
- No matter how old you are allowed to use an air-gun or an
|
||
|
|
air-rifle at a shooting gallery or amusement centre (yippee!).
|
||
|
|
- You are not allowed to carry knives such as flick-knives,
|
||
|
|
daggers, butterfly knives, or knuckle knives.
|
||
|
|
- You are also not allowed to carry nunchuckas, knuckle dusters,
|
||
|
|
shanghais, blow guns or catapults.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
FINAL NOTE:
|
||
|
|
If you want other information on any legal stuff, I suggest
|
||
|
|
calling the Legal Aid Commission on 03-607-0234.
|
||
|
|
Well this information will probably be pretty useless unless
|
||
|
|
you live in Victoria so just ignore it if you come from some other place and
|
||
|
|
read some of the other cool articles.
